Ingredients

• 2 pieces Chicken breast
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 1 cup Crushed pork rinds
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
• 1 large Tomato, sliced
• 4 tablespoons Keto-friendly mayonnaise
• 2 pieces Keto-friendly buns, sliced

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the chicken. Place each chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap and gently pound them to an even thickness, approximately 1/2 inch thick.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, mix together the almond flour, crushed pork rinds, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.

Step 4

Dip each chicken breast into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.

Step 5

Place the chicken onto the almond flour mixture, pressing down firmly to ensure the mixture adheres well to the chicken. Ensure both sides are well-coated.

Step 6

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 7

Once the oil is hot, add the breaded chicken breasts to the skillet.

Step 8

Cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the coating is golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.

Step 9

Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 10

Prepare the sandwich by spreading 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the inside of each keto-friendly bun halve.

Step 11

Layer each sandwich with lettuce leaves, tomato slices, and the crispy breaded chicken breast.

Step 12

Top with the remaining bun halve and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious keto crispy breaded chicken sandwich!
